Frequently Asked Questions

Four part numbers appear on this listing — 1T02LC0US0, 1T02LCAUS0, 1T02LCBUS0 and 1T02LCCUS0. Which cartridge am I actually buying?

All four, one of each. This is the complete TK-8507 set: 1T02LC0US0 is the black cartridge (TK-8507K), 1T02LCAUS0 is the cyan (TK-8507C), 1T02LCBUS0 is the magenta (TK-8507M) and 1T02LCCUS0 is the yellow (TK-8507Y). Whichever code is printed on the cartridge you are replacing, it is covered by this one box.

What arrives in the box?

Four individually sealed cartridges — one black, one cyan, one magenta and one yellow, each in its own protective bag. It is a one-of-each refresh: there are no doubled colors and no second black hiding in the set.

How do the ratings work — 30,000 pages for black but 20,000 for each color?

That split is how this family is rated. The black cartridge carries a 30,000-page rating and each color cartridge a 20,000-page rating, both at standard office coverage. On a TASKalfa 4550ci running a normal mix of reports and color documents, black is still the slot most offices watch first, because text pages lean on it hardest.

Only one color has run out. Do I need to fit the whole set now?

No. Every cartridge lives in its own slot and can be swapped independently. Fit the one that is empty and put the other three back on the shelf still sealed — an unopened cartridge stores far better than one that has been opened and left sitting in the machine room.

How should the spares be stored until their turn comes?

Flat, sealed, in a cool dry cupboard out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. Work through them in purchase order and they will keep for many months; a sticky note with the month you bought the set on the box saves guesswork later.

What warranty and returns cover does the set carry?

Each cartridge in the set is backed by a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns, as described in our shipping & returns policy. If a single unit from the set ever misbehaves, that cartridge is dealt with on its own — the rest of the set does not have to come back with it.

When the set arrives, how do I confirm each cartridge belongs in my machine?

Check the four labels against the four slots before breaking any seals: black should read 1T02LC0US0, cyan 1T02LCAUS0, magenta 1T02LCBUS0 and yellow 1T02LCCUS0. The three color codes differ only in the letter before US0 — A for cyan, B for magenta, C for yellow — so compare them letter by letter against the cartridges coming out of your TASKalfa. Four matches mean the whole family is confirmed in one pass, before anything is opened.

The black is rated at 30,000 pages and the colors at 20,000 — does that mean the colors will run out first?

Not necessarily. Ratings only compare capacity, not how hard each slot works. In a department printing reports and letters all day, black carries nearly every page while the colors are used lightly, so the black can still finish first despite holding the bigger rating. On a color-heavy machine the opposite happens. Watch the level display for all four slots rather than assuming the smaller rating empties first; your document mix decides the order.

What is the average cost per cartridge in this set?

The set is priced at $402.05 for four cartridges, so the simple average is about $100.51 per cartridge. Blended across the ratings — 30,000 pages for the black and 20,000 for each color, 90,000 rated pages in all — the set works out at roughly 0.45 cents per page at standard coverage. That blended figure is a useful planning number for a department, even though the black and colors individually sit either side of it.

What should I do with the empty cartridges as each slot is renewed?

Keep each empty until the replacement in that slot has printed a few clean pages, so the old unit is available if anything needs checking. Then route spent cartridges to recycling through a local office-supplies collection or municipal program rather than general waste. Because the four slots empty at different times, the empties will leave one by one rather than as a set — that is normal, and there is no benefit in storing them up once each replacement has proven itself.
